Chapter 121

Only Shang Hao, during the entire monster-farming time, would always find time to scan Li Yao and Shang Yana.

At this moment.

The group crossed the third-floor vortex and arrived at the fourth floor.

What came into view was a lava world.

The area was much larger than the first three floors.

Stepping on the dark red ground, the faces of the group all became grave.

The fourth floor was the watershed of the Tower of Heaven.

Here, level 20 elite monsters would appear, and even boss-level creatures were hidden.

If not careful, one could capsize in the gutter at any time!

"Everyone stay alert, our team doesn't have a Hunter-type class, lacking scouting skills; Lava Hounds could attack from anywhere."

Shang Hao adjusted the formation according to class characteristics:

"Sister Xiao Ya, you come behind me, act as a sub-tank at critical moments; Shang Qian, you and Shang Mingxu stand in the middle; Li Yao."

Shang Hao thought that Li Yao was likely coming to the Tower of Heaven for the first time.

"The fourth floor is completely different in intensity from before; on this floor, don't let your melee summoned beast go farm monsters alone, let it stay honestly by your side and help the team guard the rear."

"The Lava Hound I just mentioned is the boss monster of this floor, but unlike bosses in other places, it will appear from anywhere at any time; if we are lucky, we won't encounter it, if we are unlucky, it might appear in the next second, so guarding the rear is very important, do you understand?"

Li Yao nodded.

As the team leader, as long as the arrangement wasn't problematic, he wouldn't make things special.

However.

What he needed to scout wasn't that boss monster called the Lava Hound, but the Yan family practitioners who were hiding somewhere and could appear at any time.

The killing task on this floor was 20 elite monsters and 50 common monsters.

As long as a boss didn't appear during battle, the team would be at ease.

An S-tier practitioner leading the team, three A-tier practitioners; this configuration wasn't weak anywhere.

"Clang, clang, clang."

The group hadn't traveled a hundred meters when they heard the sound of chains dragging on the ground; clearly, something was rushing toward them at high speed.

"It's here!"

Shang Hao held his shield horizontally and shouted loudly.

As the sound fell, several red shadows appeared before them.

【Red-Haired Dog】

【Level 20 (Elite)】

【Health: 8900】

【Strength: 308】

【Spirit: 118】

【Agility: 365】

【Stamina: 178】

【Skills: Magma Mao Fa LV4, Bite LV8, Flame Claw LV2】

Similar in size to ordinary dogs, covered in red fur, dragging a chain on its right hind leg.

Li Yao glanced at it; the attributes weren't even as good as the Goblin Scouts encountered in the Goblin Nest.

The kind of goods the Void Mantis could solve in one strike.

The quantity was quite large.

Three elites, six common monsters.

Shang Hao took the lead, raised his shield, and used the taunt skill.

Seeing Shang Hao hold the aggro, Shang Yana danced her sword and rushed up.

Shang Yana's class was the Agility-focused Gale Swordsman; her speed was extremely fast, her figure elegant, and the Red-Haired Dogs couldn't touch the corner of her clothes at all.

And.

As the second young lady of the Shang family.

Shang Yana had been guided one-on-one by a sword master since childhood; the thin sword in her hand was like it had navigation, and most could land weak-point damage.

【-853 (Weak-point attack)】

【-921 (Weak-point attack)】

【-364】

Such ability shouldn't be a skill effect.

Li Yao saw it and thought to himself.

Whether it was himself or the Void Mantis, wanting to cause weak-point attacks was almost always under the premise that the target's movement was restricted.

These Red-Haired Dogs were in a high-speed movement state, yet Shang Yana could land weak-point hits with every sword.

Still shouldn't underestimate these family descendants too much.

The skills cultivated since childhood combined with class attribute skills, both combined were definitely a case of one plus one being greater than two.

But Li Yao wouldn't belittle himself either.

With his current ability, even if Shang Yana played her long sword into a flower, he could use force to overcome ten moves; they were simply not opponents on the same level.

When entering the academy, he could find a mentor who specialized in physical arts.

Li Yao secretly made up his mind.

What I have, you don't.

What you have, I can learn.

Having a chance to become stronger, he naturally wouldn't let it go.

On the fourth floor, Shang Mingxu's damage was clearly a grade lower.

Attribute restraint.

Shang Mingxu was a Fire-type Mage, and the monsters here were also mainly Fire-type.

His Fireball spells, which he was proud of, could only deal double-digit damage.

With Shang Yana providing output, the advancement speed wasn't slow.

After solving these Red-Haired Dogs, Shang Hao laughed loudly.

"Pushing like this, we might be able to enter the fifth floor before dark."

"Li Yao, you just stand at the back of the team like just now, don't initiate attacks at will; after all, the Lava Hound could appear at any time, you need to keep watching."

"With Sister Xiao Ya here, we don't lack the damage of one summoned beast, haha!"

If the previous arrangement was sincerely for the team's sake, then now Shang Hao was intentionally targeting Li Yao.

Team experience distribution is based on contribution; if Li Yao stands at the back without outputting, he can only get a pitifully small amount of basic experience points.

Li Yao looked at Shang Hao indifferently.

Talking to Shang Yana before, this guy was clearly harboring resentment.

But doing this just happened to fit his thoughts.

Now they were in the dark and the Yan family was in the light; if the Void Mantis were exposed, the other party would very likely focus fire on the Void Mantis.

No need to take risks for a little experience.

Li Yao didn't speak, but Shang Yana stood in front of Li Yao, dissatisfied:

"If it's just to watch out for the Lava Hound, then Classmate Li Yao can scout by himself, why can't his summoned beast attack?"

Shang Hao was already dissatisfied that the two were leaning too close; now Shang Yana was even directly coming out to speak for Li Yao.

Shang Hao was furious, staring at Shang Yana, trying hard to control his emotions, and spoke:

"He's not a Hunter-type class, what can a Summoner scout? If it weren't for seeing his summoned beast has a stealth skill, I wouldn't even have handed the scouting work to him."

"Besides, I didn't say that bird-type summoned beast couldn't output either."

Shang Hao calculated that Li Yao wanted to save strength for the advancement task.

Back on the second floor, releasing a super-large range skill, the mana consumption must have been quite serious; Li Yao couldn't possibly let that summoned beast enter the field at this time.

Shang Hao turned his head, looking at Li Yao viciously: "Brother Li Yao, I'm doing this for your advancement task, am I right?"

Li Yao held back Shang Yana, who still wanted to speak, his expression suddenly becoming cold.

"No problem, let's do it like this." ===== CHAPTER 123 =====
